Sabre and Expedia confirm warning by DoT
Sabre and Expedia announced they had been warned by US Department of Transportation against showing bias in displays of fare and service information amid Sabre's dispute with American Airlines (Bloomberg, 15-Feb-2011). Such actions would violate laws against unfair and deceptive trade practices. American Airlines has developed its own technology to send information to travel agents instead of relying on distributors.
